Final essay

I was working on my essay and I looking at a quote in The Lover: "Their disgrace is a matter of course. Both are doomed to discredit because of the kind of body they have, caressed by lovers, kissed by their lips, consigned to the infamy of a pleasure unto death, as they both call it, unto the mysterious death of lovers without love. That's what it's all about: this hankering for death (Duras 90)." I know that this has something to do with the fact that death is associated with detachment and separation. However, I am having trouble analyzing this quote any further. Could anyone help me understand this quote? Thanks.
